Today is the ancient Roman festival of Mercuralia, honoring the god Mercury, who ruled over travel, communication, and commerce. On this day, it was traditional to sprinkle one's head, ships, and wares with water from the well at Porta Capena in order to receive Mercury's blessings on one's business.
Even if you don't live in Rome near the Porta Capena, you can still bring Mercury's blessings upon your finances.
Make a Mercury business wash by boiling water with three bay leaves (bay laurel). While it boils, trace the astrological symbol for Mercury over the water to invoke Mercury's blessings. Once it cools, sprinkle a bit on your head and hands. You can also sprinkle it on your business card, check stub, or wallet. If you sell anything online, go to your website and then place three drops on the edge of your computer.
